I enjoyed the puzzles and the mechanic of switching between two characters. Although I found it easy to use the mechanic to get stuck inside of objects from the switches. Wish there was more levels. Good Job

Developer

Thanks for playing ! will make more levels for sure

Very cool puzzle platformer. I had to restart stages a lot because when you fall somewhere you shouldn't you're not always able to get back. Once I started playing a little more cautiously I enjoyed it a lot more.

Developer

Thanks for playing :d

Amazing. I play game in the jam, everyone has the great ideas of dimension switch, and your level design just stand out. It' pretty cool dimension switch and design, must spend lots of time thinking about it. Great job, the mechanic is cool, and I really like the music, great game!

Developer

Thanks for playing :D

Very nice. Cute art and nice puzzles.

 It was interesting to play your game because we we also had a puzzle platfomer based on different mechanics for different dimensions.

Developer

Thanks alot ! I'll check your game out too

Very good puzzle platformer. The dimension-swapping mechanic was on point for the theme of this Game jam. I look forward to any future updates you may have for this game.

Love the way you implemented 2 dimensions! The levels were well created too!

Developer

Thanks for playing !

Well done. 

I like the background music.

Controls feel well done, jumping and falling is a bit slow but gives a sense of space.

Music was bang on! Great little puzzle game for sure, I liked the idea of switching between players and them seeing different stuff. Overall a good game and a concept that would be worth looking to more and maybe even further develop it!

Thanks ! I will look into adding more levels and more features for sure

Really good puzzle/platformer, great job

Developer

Thanks !

Good platformer. When I would reach the second button with the astronaut though the door would close right on top of the character and lock him inside the door colliders and had to restart a couple times.

Hey thanks for playing , I had this problem aswell but I couldn't figure out a way to fix it in time

Great game! The music had me going through this whole spiritual journey as I struggled to platform on the final level lol.

This is a great idea for a puzzle game! I liked how instantaneously the concept is communicated, and how easy it is to see the effects your actions in one dimension have in the other. I might suggest starting players off in a smaller, more enclosed space, as it did feel a little overwhelming at first, but overall great job!

Developer

Thanks for playing ! I wanted to add a tutorial level but didn't have time
